What's on the menu for today?

So what's on the menu for today?

For dinner we are having chili I had in the freezer. They can have that or frito chili pie. For lunch since I am on my own and hubs isn't home today I am having white beans and ham . It's c-c-c-old outside and it sounded wonderful to me. :D I love having stuff in the freezer, makes life so much easier.

So what's everyone else having?

I work at a hospital and have the pleasure(?) of a full-service cafeteria for lunch. Lately I've been really enjoying a cottage cheese salad with sliced chicken breast and a hard boiled egg mixed in, all lightly topped with fresh salsa. It goes down easy, is filling, and is a refreshing meal.

I'm a bit chilly today too so for lunch I'm having a 1/2 can of Hormel Turkey Chili (just found it at the store this weekend and I love it). For dinner I am thinking about having grilled grouper and sauteed veggies. Breakfast was 2 hard boiled eggs...not sure about snacks yet - I will figure that part out as I go along.

Had an egg on a piece of light rye bread. Some mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries & blackberries). Lunch will be a 6" sub from subway with lots of veggies. Supper will be fish pie and a green salad. I also brought 4 Melba toasts and 4 thin slices of cheddar cheese to work if I need a snack at some pointthis afternoon.

Breakfast - Protein Hot Chocolate & Blackberries

Lunch - Lean Cuisine

Dinner - Spaghetti! (I will not eat the pasta, just the sauce) Have been craving some nice homemade spaghetti sauce for quite sometime

The menu for today was/is...breakfast was eggbeaters with turkey sausage & a wee bit of homefries, lunch was homemade fruit salad - going to be followed up by some leftover bbq shortly here, dinner is chicken & veggies.

And it is DARN cold out this morning! LOL

B was a scrammbled egg on half English muffin with 3slices centercut bacon.

L was 1/2cup chunky Soup and activia dessert yogurt with Protein powder.

D will be a piece of broiled salmon, a few mini potato pierogi,and some steamed broccoli.

Snacks have been a small applesauce with 1.5 tsp cinnamon, and maybe a cheesestick or cocoa roast almonds later.

Breakfast was a sugar free carnation instant made with skim milk. I am not much of a breakfast person on weekday morning so I find this to be the easiest!!! Mid morning I had a small banana.

Now for lunch I am sitting at my desk eating 2 oz of tuna sparked with fat free cesear dressing, garlic powder and minced onion, no fat cottage cheese and 5 organic wheat crackers finishes up my 131 calorie meal.

I will have a reduced sodium V-8 and fat free pudding for a snack and dinner tonight will be a Boca burger (meatless flame broiled variety) and some sort of veggtable.

I tend to go simple during the week.... its just easier for me.

Try grating a zucchini and using it in place of the pasta. That way you get your veggie and a semblance of pasta. Spaghetti squash works well too.

so far all i've had is my protein drink. it's only 8:12 lol. but i will get my water in today, yogurt, lunch will prob be my leftover beans, another shake this afternoon, dinner is bacon and eggs (they are having biscuits and gravy :unsure: ). not very exciting but it's food none the less lol.

Today's menu is looking something like this:

B: 1/4 cup Egg Beaters with 4 slices of turkey bacon

L: Leftover chicken breast cooked with salsa, taco seasoning, and added taco sauce to moisten it.

D: Probably the same as lunch since I hate two portions left. If not, I will pop open a can of chicken, add a dab of Texas Pete Wing Sauce, Ranch Dressing, and shredded cheese. Then, mocrowave it for a minute and a half.

B: 2 Melba toast topped with tuna

L: other half of my ham/veggie subway sub from yesterday lunch.
